Paul Easter wrote about Hi-Res primitives: (...) L3P will correctly render any DAT file. But it will not substitute any Hi-Res primitives until I release the next version. I did program Hi-Res support in June 1999, so I guess it's about time for a (...) (25 years ago, 25-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) My opinion is that we do need high res circular primitives (edge, disc, cyli, etc) in cases where the part includes curves/surfaces with a significantly larger diameter than 'usual'. The good old STUD.dat (and its familiy) looks OK with 16 (...) (25 years ago, 25-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Ok, Can some one tell me where we are heading with these Hi-Res primitives. Today I created the Hi-Res versions of several of the "normal" primitives. Then I edited the main "normal" ones to use the Hi-Res instead. WOW! There was about a 10-20% (...) (25 years ago, 25-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
